ABSTRACT
STEP 2 WEIGHT IN LINE Modigliani started with a very simple sketch,
before making quick brush strokes over the
lines. Most of his lines appear to be dragged
across the surface, resulting in a jagged
stroke that is full of energy-there are very
few sharp lines. These gestural strokes
would become the basis for how negative
and positive shapes played off each other, so
here we will create a jagged brush to emulate
Modigliani’s line work.
